Our hearts are full in May. 💚
RAMS was proud that our very own Stephanie Ancheta, Peer Specialist, joined a panel at the 2026 American Psychiatric Association (APA) Annual Meeting in San Francisco hosted by American Psychiatric Association. Alongside Wonyun Lee, Alyssa Tate, MD, Thomas Pak, MD, PhD, and Joseph Guillory, M.D., they each shared their perspective on the panel, themed From Stabilization to Resilience: Integrating Recovery Principles in Everyday Psychiatry. Thank you Stephanie for sharing your insights on recovery-oriented care, lived experience, and peer-based support!
Following the panel, panelists joined site visits at RAMS service locations to learn more about frontline community-based mental health work.
On the next day, RAMS was honored to receive the 2026 APA Psychiatric Services Achievement Bronze Award, recognizing our innovative approaches to expanding access to mental health care for diverse communities. 🏆
Congratulations to North Carolina Statewide Telepsychiatry Program (NC-STEP) East Carolina University and Nulton Diagnostic & Treatment Center for their innovative work in our communities!
